question. It does not, however, make me a physicist, or a historian, etc.

Rant over. Just felt I needed to put this out there for some reason. Just going with my gut, using a split moment of crackhead confidence to express myself without smothering my opinions outright. 8/8

Just want my position clear. AI is not an art. Period.

It's a tool. A good tool; language-based, which is friendly to how we work as humans. I have tried it in order to put maths or complicated subjects into an easy-to-digest form. In that way, it's like a Wiki that you can 7/8

a book. I often compare myself to many great writers; Ray Bradbury, Neil Gaiman, Tolkien, just to name a few. People that make me doubt I even belong at the writer's table although I have put in the work throughout my adult life and some of my teens to be there.

6/8

I will not budge on this point. You're a usurper, an upstart shouldering your way to a table at which you have no business standing.

I suffer from doubt, from being self-critical to the point of killing my projects. I have so many aborted drafts on Twitter that could fill 5/8

rinse & repeat. You had a moment of fancy and used a machine to scrape the love, blood, sweat and tears from other works and have it give you an approximate of your tiny vision

You're not an artist. This is one of the few areas I can speak definitively and with confidence on 4/8

makes you. So, no, I do not and never will subscribe to the notion that we stand at the same table because I write myself and you use AI.

You haven't honed your "voice", ached over grammar, wrote a sentence multiple times for its flow, doubted your vision, faced ridicule; 3/8

just a machine. You put something in, something comes out. You're a loader, not a weaver. You're a lever-puller, not a painter.

You're not an "artisan", you just keep the threads from gumming up the machine that makes the textiles. That's all using AI, a digital machine, 2/8

🧵there's a lot of Chatgpt and AIArt stuff out there. I personally feel strongly about it, only in its dearth of ethical or critical reception. Especially on the grounds of people using it for writing/art purposes and calling themselves "artists".

No work went into it, it's 1/8

Anyway, gush over. Very happy to try a new game. The turn-based fighting is actually a nice change. No more hyper-focusing on where everyone is, dodging and aiming.

So, for now, I'll save up. Because every ticket goes to Himeko until she comes home!

The trial part hurt.
I get it, it's to make you want a character all the more...

But for a short time I had Himeko...
A tragedy in 4 pics...

But anyway, just look at her! ❤️

#HonkaiStarRail #gacha #gaming

I went in blind for funsies, just to surprise myself

...And imagine my surprise to see that Himeko's in this game! 🫨

Likewise, Mura— Himeko. Likewise 😭

So, tried the newest #gacha and...

Kafka's doing things to me 😶

Tucker Carlson leaves #FoxNews

In other words: rat jumps rat-infested ship

That took way too long 😅

People who see all drag events as sexualized places (like a Hooters) that are not appropriate for kids...

Maybe men dressing up as women is sexual to *you*, and *you* really need to deal with that...

Decent society

Next major projects are Qin Liangyu and Gramps for fighting reasons. They have so much potential for soloing and Gramps' bond CE helps to make him EVEN MORE BROKEN 💀
